Description

In this paper, the time independent Hamilton operator is examined as an eigenvalue problem. It is found that the solutions are periodic in time with complex period. These solutions are studied in the extended Hilbert space L2(Rsub(n)x[0,T]). Finally, the case of harmonic oscillator with the term 1/2#betta#qp where #betta#, the friction constant, is studied in detail. (author)
